Review: "Vidal Sassoon" Shampoo and Conditioner

This is the first time I have use this brand of shampoo and conditioner.

I will share with you my experience. 

Item: Vidal Sassoon Shampoo

       Vidal Sasoon Conditioner

Size: Shampoo - 190ml

      Conditioner - 184ml

Price:  Shampoo - P199 (acquired free)

       Conditoner - P199 (acquired free)

How to Use:
    We all know that every product we bought has a label that says the proper usage or suggested process on how we use the product. I always read labels. I read the ingredients, the distributor/manufacturer. I read the possible result, or the expected result that the product claims to be.
    But I'll tell you, most of the times I don't follow instructions hehehe. (just being hard headed). I do follow instructions only if I am not familiar with the item or the use of the item. On gadgets or electronics especially. But to shampoo and conditioner? Ha! I have my own way. lol
My Usage:
    When shampooing, even sachets, I always do the following steps:

 

pour small quantity of shampoo in a dipper with water

you can control the amount of shampoo according to your need

whisk the shampoo with you hands until shampoo is dissolve and bubbles appear

shampoo is already mixed with water.

     Once mixture is done, that's when I massage it into my hair and scalp.  For conditioner, it's very simple.

    

pour an acceptable amount of conditioner into my palm.

apply into hair and lather

Rating:
    I will rate the shampoo according to it's function. 1 being the lowest and 5 being the highest, and I will share why I rate such.
    Fragrance: (4/5)
       I give it a four (4) for both shampoo and conditioner. I believe that shampoos with lower frangrance contents are more effective than shampoos with too much fragrance. It smells so mild that you will love. Why 4 not 5? Because the smell after hair is dry doesn't long. So your hair don't smell fresh after long hours of work. :)
     Packaging:  (5/5)

      Oh I love the package. So unique. Not the usual round bottle or the rectangle one. It looks elegant. Big 5 for that.
      Performance: (4/5)
      Performance is commendable. I love the work it done to my hair. There is no tangle, no frizz and it was soft after few days of continuous usage.
      User friendly: (5/5)
      I'll give five to that. Yes it's very user friendly. User friendly in terms that it is not irritating to the eyes. Or was I just too careful??? lolz. :)
      Availability: (3/5)
     In terms of availability I'll give 3 to that or else lower. This brand is not available in small groceries and especially in sari-sari store. And since big groceries and supermarket is not available in neighborhood, user has to travel just to buy this brand. But it will comes in handy if you are in malls.
      Price: (4/5)
     It is affordable. I will surely buy this brand if it only is available in stores near us. :)
      Staying Power: (4/5)
     Since the smell is so mild I don't expect it to stay for long hours of busy day. And I was right. But it sure is refreshing and I'm sure I'm not smelly after a long day. luv luv..

I Want to Be Part of Sample Room's Bloggers Circle

    I started blogging a few years back. It was not a serious blog, I don't intend to make money out of it. Ironically titled: Pimpy Eyes of kitty cat original title was "everything-under-the-sun" but that was so common that I have to change the title. I know I have a long title, anyways I don't use it in full. I refer to my page as Ironically tiTled.  What's ironic about this blog is that there is no post being ironic. :)
    I put up the page simply to record my thoughts, my likes, my finds, adventure, activities, experiences and many others. A-L-L about me. 
    In the later half of 2012, I noticed the change in the focus of my post. From the rags and un-categorized posts, I slowly got interested in fashion and beauty. My interest in fashion and beauty care was influenced by my co-worker and my maid of honor-best friend. We go shopping together and we try on clothing on every boutique we went to in the malls and we tester items - lipstick, blush on, mascara, etc.- in beauty care stores. We even spray different fragrances, long as they are free and for testing!!.. :)
    I admit I am a late bloomer when it comes to fashion and beauty. But I believe that there is no age in beauty and no proper age in expressing yourself when it comes to fashion. We can be fashionable in any age. And we become prettier as we aged!
    Was thankful to a fellow blogger who invited me through email to join the best Sample website there is - SAMPLE ROOM! Sample Room has become part of my blogging this past few weeks, and I was always waiting for every new item that I can buy with my points. What I love about Sample Room was mentioned in my previous POST. And having experienced Sample Room I love it so much that I would really like to be included and be a part of their bloggers Circle.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGE OF BEING PART OF THEIR CIRCLE? Here's some:
   1.  Always updated and on the first to know all about Sample Room's up and coming launches!
   2. Be featured in a Blogger's Circle Page with the description of my blog and the link to it, which was i love the most. (free advertising, duh?!? (**big mouth smile**)]
   3. Free sample of course and a gift from Sample Room! (excited :] :] )
   4. And of course, free discussion and activities only exclusive for members... more learning , more fun!!

So those were the ultimate advantages which I am pursuing why I wanted to be part of Sample Room... I hope so.. :)

Any ways I am crossing my fingers... and yeah, it's only an hour left before cut -off for participants..

MALUNGGAY experience with Moringa - O2 (REVIEW)

Lately malunggay has become very popular in every corner of household kitchens. Almost everyone was so taken by this vegetable for it's nutrient contents. It was used in the kitchen of locals to professional chef.

In our province this malunggay can be found in every backyard, never knowing how useful this plant is. We use it mainly for simple dishes. But today, malunggay has been so popular that it was used to different products not only on dishes, it was also used in breads, soaps, and this time.... lotion.

Moringa - O² is a herbal lotion that the main ingredient is malunggay extract. It contains Olive Oil and Omega that protect the skin from the direct heat of the sun thus, making the skin smooth and nourished. Moringa - O² also softens the skin. Malungay extract also helps prevent the skin from early aging which makes you look younger. I usually put on lotion after bath to prevent skin from dryness. The packing is great to carry wherever I go. So, Moringa - O² becomes a part of my everyday bag. I always carry it with me. It is my addiction to put on lotion whenever my skin gets sapple and if I have been under the heat for long hours.

It has mild fragrance. Smell fresh and yes, it smells like you get a handful of malunggay leaf and crushed them with your bare hands. No poignant feelings, no pungent odor. It absorbs easily by the skin. Not sticky nor greasy instead it moisten your skin. There is nothing to dislike about this product.

Moringa - O² is manufactured locally by ARDENT WORLD INC.. They are the company behind the successful and best-selling skin whitening .

What are the benefits from Moringa - O² MALUNGGAY herbal moisturing lotion? Here are some benefits you can get from using this lotion:
     a. deeply nourishes and moisturizes dry skin
     b. smoothens and softens dry, scaly skin
     c. stimulates cell regeneration and cell renewal
     d. improves skin slasticity and suppleness
     e. helps in slowing down signs of aging
     f. lightens skin
     g. UVA/UVB protection
     h. Quick absorption and non-greasy.

Try Before You Buy - Sample Room

I was only referred by a blogger to a website via e-mail. Usually I don't pay attention to such e-mails. What makes me interested is the photos included in the email. So I visited the site. Good thing that I did. It was so new that time that I'm not sure what the blogger wanted me to do to the website. It was promising though. So I registered and leave it at that. 

Having browsed the site and found nothing to do anything there, I just leave and almost forgot it. Until I received an email from them updating me for some changes and other additional information on the page. And this time they already have sample items for free. 

I haven't ordered yet, I still waited sometime before trusting it. (the vigilant me at work.. lol)

The website I am referring to is non other than, SAMPLEROOM.PH. One of the promising website today for reviews and trying out the items before it goes to the market.

About Sample Room:
  This is a site for sample items. This is where you can buy beauty products in small quantity for trying before you buy the whole package. Saves you a lot of money.  The site is open for reviews from all those who bought the items. If you don't want to buy anything, you can browse it and read reviews made by other consumers. The reviews were all helpful if you are being a wise consumer. By the reviews made you can make your decision if you should buy or not. It will also help you identify if the product will suit you best.

How to earn points:
    As I have mention above, all item at Sample Room can be bought only with points. When you register, you will automatically be credited with 100 points to start with. You can already use this point to buy your first sample. That is only your preliminary earning point. You can start from there. But to make your points grow, you can do the following:

• Rate and Review sample. You can only do this if you already purchased sample products.
• Registered referrals. Spread the word and let them register to the site and experience the risk free shopping. :)  [So if you register let me know your email used in registration, that would be your gift to me (^-^)]
• Sample Room contests. Sample Room offers contests where you can earn points.

• Buying of Points. (This portion is not yet available, but it will be soon) If you lack points and you wanted an item to be included in your orders, you can buy points with your own money. :)

How much is the cost?
   Registration is free. The only cost you will shoulder is shipping of the items you wanted to sample on. Aside from Shipping, there is nothing more.

HALO EYESHADOW & AHAVA DAY MOISTURIZER REVIEW

     A hundred (100) points was awarded to me when I joined and registered at Sample Room. I was excited in choosing which to buy with my points.

     In the end I have chosen two items to try. I wanted to make sure I make the best out of my money (for shipping charge.) So I maximize the points I have.

Here are the two Items I selected:

1. AHAVA ESSENTIAL DAY MOISTURIZER and
2. VENUS & MARS MINERAL EYESHADOW
 

 

 AHAVA ESSENTIAL DAY MOISTURIZER

   I have chosen this one for the fact that my face needs a cream or a moisturizer before anything can be put on it. Sample for this product worth 75 points. It is costly considering that I only have 100 points to consume for samples. But there is nothing else that interest me in that time. The other products available are not for me or my age. 

    Although I was hesitant to buy this one, I was happy I did what I did. AHAVA did a great job to my face. Although I have normal facial skin and sometimes oily, this moisturizer really moisturizes my skin without the oiliness. It does not make my face shiny. It also serves as my primer for my make up. I used it before applying my pressed powder and it absorbs so easily that I didn't have to wait minutes before applying anything else. Once I spread the cream to my face I always followed it with pressed powder. And even the pressed powder foam didn't get sticky after use. It's really great a product. Very well recommended.

    Before, whenever I use a cream after shower, my skin still gets dry. But with AHAVA, my face stayed moisturize the whole day. My blemishes were reduced after applying and with continued use, now that I almost consumed the 15ml sample, I noticed a soft, clearer, and rosy chicks I have. Such a great change. And yes, I definitely will look for it in stores. Great effect on my facial skin and I admit, I really look better now.. :)

VENUS AND MARS MINERALS

There are two reasons for  why I have bought it together with AHAVA:
      1. I was in love with the color. (picture doesn't show the real color because of poor quality camera.)
     2. Only cost 20 points for a 2.5g sample jar. Suits very well with my available points..hehe.

     I don't always use eye shadows. I do only if I am going to attend any programs or parties. My everyday make up is always lipstick, facial cream and powder. And sometimes if I felt like putting eye shadows on. (tipong trip trip lang). 
     There is no regret in buying this product except that it is messy for me. A lot of powder were wasted every time I open the bottle.
      what i love about v&m minerals:
a. The color is great, so vibrant. (will best fit specially for fair skin tone)
b. It is very pigmented that you only have to apply little and it will already look great.
c. Very cute packaging. (lolz)
d. No irritation, no tickles after use.
e. Lasting effect. Doesn't fade quickly. I have to apply only once for the whole eight (8) hours.
f. And lastly, it does not spread once it is already properly applied on your eyelids, (messy only on packaging but not when already applied on.)
